 Thank You all for your great comments. I really enjoyed doing this photoshoot and really liked this photo. This is 1 out of 500+ shots taken.
Close but not close enough. I'll just have to keep at it. Thanks again all for your positive reinforcement.

For this portrait, I wanted the focus of the picture to be her face while still keeping her body in the frame as the background composition.

Lovely portrait, I agree with your comments about keeping her face the focus and her body as a supporting element to the face. Wonderful composition and post work. Congrats to you and the model on this beautiful image.

Congratulations on top 5 finish! You proved me wrong but I really didn't like the cropped fingers.

Love the colors and unusual crop - it doesn't really bother me that the hand isn't all there. I feel like the eyes may be a smidge too close to the top, but it still works. Well done!

Nice shot...the blurry cross works well to tie together the fore and backgrounds. Great lighting

Really good. Great focus. I love the interplay between religion and sexuality.(playfully biting the rosary while staring at the camera)- you can't help but see a naughty nice contrast. A real contender.

Good focus on her face and hand, great use of DOF to blur arm and body. Great facial expression. I love that look. Good luck.

Nice expressions skin tones,good composition & DOF. I actually can't find out flaws but still there is something lacking in the image., maybe too many cropped things might be the reason.

Great crop, light and detail... good dof at that angle... 8

Good DOF and I like the intensity in her eyes.
